Let’s suppose you’re going to take some friends out on the boat for
some water skiing on a beautiful Lyman area lake. Of course, you get the
boat ready, but what about your tow vehicle?

Think about it – heavy Lyman traffic, hilly SC terrain. Maybe some
dirt roads – and it’s going to be pretty hot. And all the time you’ll be
towing several thousand extra pounds around Lyman roads. That all adds up a lot of severe strain on your transmission.
It’s going to be working overtime, spending more time in lower gears.
The internal transmission temperature is going to be much higher than
normal.

Lyman drivers need to make sure they have enough transmission fluid.
If it runs low, the transmission will run hotter and won’t have the
protection it needs to cope with the added stress of towing.
Transmission fluid breaks down and gets dirty over time. Whether your
minivan has an automatic or manual transmission, you need to have it
serviced on schedule at AdvantageAuto to make sure it runs efficiently.

Neglect your minivan transmission for too long, and it can fail. You really don’t want to pay for a major transmission repair even with the reasonable rates at AdvantageAuto.

Before you leave your Lyman home and head to the lake, bring your vehicle in to AdvantageAuto for a trip inspection. Your AdvantageAuto
service technician will check your fluids, belts and hoses and let you
know if your brakes are in good shape. Now, don’t forget the sunscreen.
